Spring Makeup Must Haves

Now that it is spring I love to switch some of my makeup products up, out with the berry lips and in with the pretty pinks. However as I write this it is lashing with rain, April showers are definitely here. Let me know if you would like to see a post on how to prolong makeup wear and prevent it running off in the showers. Anyway back to the post I am writing about now. Personally in spring I love having light, fresh makeup with lots of pink and coral tones and of course some glow.

Firstly I love a glowy primer, in spring it is nice to have fresh/healthy looking skin and having a dewy base is great without looking greasy. The one I am currently using is the Loreal Lumi Magique Primer, this is pretty and quite affordable.

Secondly I think that it is nice to have a soft shimmery eye, whether you prefer cream or powder there is a lot of great options. The colours I find myself reaching for are rose gold/copper tones. My favourites being Urban Decay Chopper, Zoeva Pure Ganache, Makeup Geek Cosmopolitan and In The Spotlight.

Next is blush, there is nothing prettier than a pop of pink or coral on the cheek in spring and I think that if it has a shimmer or sheen then it looks even nicer. Cream Blushers also look fresh as they always have a natural glow to them. My Favourite Blushes for spring are Rimmel Santa Rose, Makeup Geek Honeymoon and SpellBound.

Lastly it has to be pink lips, whether its matte or glossy, pink lips always remind me of spring makeup. My Favourites are Rimmel Kate 28, L’oreal Julianne’s Nude, Tanya Burr Lipgloss in Picnic in the Park, MAC Creme Cup and Barry M Hi Shine Gelly Lip in Orion. For days when I want a brighter option I love to wear NYX Soft Matte Lip Creme in Prague.

Hopefully this has given you some spring makeup inspiration or has just made you feel more spring like, but Id love to know your Spring makeup must haves.
